Waylon Jennings - I'm a Ramblin' Man (1974)

LYRICS:
Hey, we stand outside, we start coming in
We're coming in, there's two old boys standin' there
Looking hungry and everything
And so they wanted to come in out of the cold, so we let 'em come in
No, I'm just bullshittin' you

These guys are great and they're some of the new singers
That have come along in the last few years
And they're for real, though
They play them clubs just like I did
And, uh

They're a whole lot like me, they all say they came from the clubs
They're tall and good-looking and everything
Only thing they can do I can't do is walk
No, I'm just teasing you
They're really a couple of great artists, and good old boys too
Montgomery Gentry, get him to come out here
Damn, you're big ol' boys, ain't you?

Maybe I'll lighten up on your intros the next time
I gotta say, I don't think we've missed a dinner yet
Here's an old song that I did a long time ago
And we found out that they do it on their shows
So if anybody screws it up, it's probably gonna be me
'Cause I ain't done it in a long time
But they, they've been doing it, so I'm depending on y'all (let's do it)
Help me out here, go for it (one, two, three)

I've been down the Mississippi
Down through New Orleans
Oh, yes, I have
I've played in California
There ain't too much I haven't seen
No, there ain't

Lord, I'm a ramblin' man
Don't mess around with a ramblin' man
Oh, yeah

Left a girl in West Virginia
Up where that green grass grows
Yes, I did
I got a girl in Cincinnati
Waitin' where that Ohio River flows

I'm a ramblin' man
Don't give your heart to a ramblin' man

You'd better move away
You're standing too close to the flame
Once I mess with your mind
Your little heart won't beat the same
I'm a ramblin' man
Don't mess around with a ramblin' man

Up in Chicago
I was known as quite a boy
Oh, yes I was
Down in Alabama
They call me "The man of joy"
They still do

I'm a ramblin' man
Don't mess around with a ramblin' man

You'd better move away
You're standing too close to the flame
Once I mess with your mind
Your little heart won't beat the same
I'm a ramblin' man
Don't mess around with a ramblin' man

Mr. Waylon Jennings
Good ol' boys
They gon' be around a long time, I guarantee you
Hi, hey listen, this is one of my favorite songs
